I should be able to make it I leave in north ga so it will take me a little over an hour to get there. How will I find you?

Hi, i am up in N. Ga. I have an appointment to see Dr Champion. Anyone here used him? I was going to Chatanooga but had a conflict with the Dr about aspirin. I am now going to go to Atlanta.

Hi -- I'm from N Ga too (Jasper) and Dr Champion banded me on 11/12 --I'm doing great post-op.

I really like his staff and Doctor Champion. I think you will like all of them. Let me know how things go...Good luck!

Hi Tessa , Dr Bagneto did my surgery, I also live in Albany. Have you been able to get insurance to pay? I had no luck and paid for it myself. Hope it works. Would love to talk with others from Albany for support.

Hi all. I'm from georgia also. I live in atlanta. Its right outside of atlanta by six flags. I just had surgery on the 12th. I doing ok but have some concerns. My port incision seems so big. Its like half the size of a tennis ball and I thought it would have went down by now. So I'm a little worried at this point, I too was self pay and went to mexico to have my surgery. It also bothers that incision when i'm sitting straight up. I kind of have to lean back and stretch out that side of my body for it to feel better. Any advice fellow Georgians?

ATL38, who is doing your surgery? I live in Lilburn. If you have any questions, ask away.

Good luck to all the newly banded, waiting to be banded or just getting started. It is all so worth it.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
